Hmm ... okay, so I have the default audio running through my onboard system. Any advice on how to get, say Flash media live encoder to recognize the MBox? (or ustream) ...

when I go to control panel -> sounds and audio devices -> the Mbox does show up as an option for Sound playback and voice playback. Also when I check in device manager, the Mbox is there and it says the device is working properly as well ...
